No Chance for Islamic
State to ‘Pose Any Threat’ - Iran

Iran said today it has
strengthened its border guard units deployed at Ilam and Kermanshah provinces, bordering Iraq, to counter any attack by the Islamic State militants who
control parts of Diyala near the Iranian border.

“The Islamic Republic border
guards deployed at the borders use state-of-the art tools and optical
equipment to monitor the smallest moves along the border,” said Brig. Gen.
Lotfali Pakbaz, the commander of border guards in Ilam province.

“The guards are watching
the country’s borders so carefully that there has not remain any chance for the
Takfiri terrorist groups, including the Islamic State, to pose any threat for
Iran,” Gen. Pakbaz added. (Fars News Agency, 4 October)
